Move Gift Nitro chat button to profile panel

The new button in the chat box for gifting nitro subscriptions is in a really obstructive spot. I feel a better spot for that button would be either in the user's profile panel, or at the top of the chat with the call and pinned messages buttons.

Staff here over at /r/discordapp said it was for Canary (aka alpha/beta of Discord).There's a possibility that this feature is being gradually rolled out to non-beta users? Because I've asked several people around servers, and none of them have it yet.

Eitherway, this just makes the option to have the toggle on/off for it all the more needed.

Anywhere else is better TBH. I get that they want it to be apparent, but as someone who uses Discord on a portrait monitor, but tends to write very long messages, (such as while roleplaying,) the "little" bit of width the gifting button removes is a huge hassle. I can see where it could go un-noticed on a landscape monitor with only one or two lines of text, but I'm certain many people use Discord in places beside a fullscreen landscape monitor, and once you have a few lines of text it quickly becomes a huge hassle.

I'd be fine with it in the current position if you could permanently dismiss it, and it moved to people's profile's afterward, but staying permanently in the current position is awful.

Why isnt there a way to remove the Gift nitro button. i dont want this garbage on my screen. This should have never been on the chat screen and should have always been confined to profile pages, I know it exists i dont need an AD on my screen 24/7. This garbage is starting to get as annoying as skype. PLEASE REMOVE IT

It's absolutely a ridiculous placement, it belongs either on the Nitro page or in everyone profile. this just seems like a conspicuous money grab tbh, and it's frankly annoying trying to click the emoji icon and miss clicking the gift thing.

It seems like a forced way to get people to think about gifting nitro in the first place. I understand wanting to let people know they have the option to do so, but causing it to interrupt typing things out to people/ friends? Just seems like a terrible idea from the start. I consulted quite a few of my friends about this, and they all had the same negative/ demoralizing opinion about it that I have. I don't mean to complain, but having something like that on the chat bar is too much. It doesn't contribute anything to communicating via the chat bar what-so-ever, so why put it there? I figured Discord was above stuff like that, but I guess not...

The easiest workaround for Discord on browsers until/if they add the option to remove it would be to simply filter it out with an ad-blocker extension. You might need to select the area twice to get rid of both the button and the actual pop-up.

I came here solely looking for this option to upvote. I just now got that gifting icon and I've accidentally clicked it twice. I don't mind the GIF icon, but I do not have anyone I would want to gift Nitro to and all this does is add clutter.

It's useless marketing. I get wanting income but all it does is clutter and make it more annoying for users, paid or free. I don't chat with anyone I'd want to gift Nitro to, and I doubt I could gift it once and get it to go away.

Obviously this was put right in the chat for $$$. I'm sure they've already sold a bunch because of it. It's just a marketing stragety, but at least twitch put's their sub gifting feature in their subscribe button which is out of the way and not shown in theater mode...
